This document discusses different types of artistic mediums and notations. It explores the relationship between artists, their creative works, and various forms of notation like musical scores, scripts, instructions, and software code. It questions whether notation can be considered a form of art and references examples like visual poetry, concrete poetry, and ASCII art that combine words, letters, and symbols creatively. The document also examines the history of visual and digital artworks that experiment with combining text and images through techniques like title sequences, glitch art, and generative art.

- 38. Sol Lewitt No matter what form it may finally have it must begin with an idea and when an artist uses a conceptual form of art, it means that all of the planning and decisions are made beforehand and the execution is a perfunctory affair. The idea becomes a machine that makes the art.
